Well, today I watched the movie "Braveheart" and came to the conclusion that we humans are a Paradoxum. We invented the steam-machine, evolved from apes to normal people, etc. but in the end, the greed for power is so big, that we gonna kill us all sooner or later. It's just, we were/had nothing, evolved to "humans" and the progress is takin' us always further but in the end, we gonna end there, where we started.

(It's 00:26 here and I'm tired, not sure if you guys understand me ;))

You do realize that the movie Braveheart is not historically accurate, right?

Human beings are teh suck! Without us every other living thing on Earth would be better off. We just fvck everything up. We should all die. All of humanity should gather together, hold hands and sing kumbaya until we all died of thirst or starvation. :Q

What's not correct? It's just that the movie made me think about that. Basically evolving from nothing -> something.

Most of it.

edit: although the portrayals of Edwards I & II were mostly accurate. Wallace is not accurate, he was not a peasant but a landed commoner and an educated man. The depiction of Robert the Bruce betraying Wallace at Falkirk is an insult to the Scottish people, as the Bruce was probably a greater man and hero to the Scottish people than Wallace, the French princess never met Edward II until years after Wallace had been executed, and a whole lot more.
